Retirement of MQ-8B and MQ-8C?

Posted by Lars on April 12, 2025, 1:09:41

Did the US Navy retired both the MQ-8B and MQ-8C drones?

According to Wikipedia, the MQ-8B were retired in 2022 to be replaced by the MQ-8C. But for the MQ-8C is stated that it will retired in 2024 or 2026 (no newer information there).

What is the background? What is their replacement?
